They may not be open on the shore yet, but they showed up and left no disappointment! Smalls, first off thank you! Thank you for supporting our community and the Habitat for Humanity! Secondly, AMAZING BBQ!!! Can't wait for your doors to open in Cape Charles!

I think they are under new management. The food use to be delicious but today it was horrible. I ordered the ribs and they were super salty, dry, and tough. I think im done with Smalls?

It was not crowded and the food was good. The waitress was friendly and helpful. An 18% gratuity was automatically added to the bill which we found unusual, since there were just the two of us. But we admit, we haven't dined out much lately. We'll certainly go back.

Second time ordering from this place. First time for dining in. LOVE THE pork rinds! The burnt ends were different than I'd ever had before. Hush puppies are great!

I've been coming here for a couple months at least once a week. I usually have Jordan as my server but All of the servers are super nice. Good suggestions from the menu and the food is awesome. The happy hour deal is great too, stop in for some good priced bbq.

The food is made out of heaven, it truly is a great time here especially their 2-3 hour ultimate $1 oysters shrimp and wings deals and their 2-5 $1 well drinks and beer deal. It's a good time if you come hangout with your friends

I’m a bartender and I usually leave 50% or 20% if the service was terrible. My friend and I had dinner at your establishment with her two children and was charged an 18% gratuity. Which is illegal. It should be disclosed before dining and that is for large parties typically of 8 or more. There wasn’t a sign posted at the door, there wasn’t anything posted on the menu nor did our server tell us about automatic gratuity. Not only that but the service was sub par. I asked for a second glass of wine and she cleaned the table next to us and didn’t wash her hands before handing me my wine. Which is against food safety policies. How can you get a food handlers license and not follow basic principles. Also the tables were not 6 feet apart which is against covid rules. I lost my bartending job because of covid and to see people working and not following simple protocols is a disgrace to your business. All in all it took us an hour to get our food. Which I got last and I only ordered an appetizer when at the time there was only one other table. Needless to say. I won’t be coming back here and you should really train your employees better if you want repeat customers.

I visited Small's once when a friend invited me out. I didn't have a chance to try any of their entrees - just dessert to accompany the drinks I had. Small's is quaint and their bar area is fairly big, while the service is friendly and lively. I remember their beer selection being diverse - I tried about 5-6 different beers during my visit. Parking isn't huge, but it was a Sunday when I visited, so it wasn't packed. I'd like to come back again and try their food - my friend who invited me (as well as others) told me their BBQ is excellent. With Redwood nearby, Small's would have to rock my world. Small's, though, has been around for a few years, so they must know what they're doing. Regardless, based on their beer selection, the good service and the awesome dessert I had, I'd recommend Small's. Plus, I had a good time with good people, so the experience was that much better. JV

Never got food. One waitress for 5 tables. One table had 10 people and another had 6. All walk in at about same time. We waited 15 to 20 minutes only got water. Wasn't the waitresses fault. Management advertised happy hour and didn't staff and wasn't there to help. We left because we could see it was going to be along wait for service. I will say the waitress was doing a good job but you can only do so much. We will try again in the future

Small’s is an incredible restaurant! Their food is amazing and so is their service. I definitely recommend the Alabama white chicken. Love this small business!
